What is another word for fire raids?
Pronunciation: [fˈa͡ɪ͡ə ɹˈe͡ɪdz] (IPA) 
Fire raids, also known as bombing missions, refer to a military operation where a target is bombarded with incendiary bombs or other explosive devices. Synonyms for fire raids include air raids, bombing raids, airstrike, and carpet bombing. These types of military operations have been used throughout history, most notably during World War II in cities like London, Tokyo, and Dresden. Though devastating in their impact, fire raids have largely been outlawed in modern warfare due to the indiscriminate damage they can cause to both military and civilian targets. Today, precision strikes using guided missiles and other advanced weaponry have largely replaced fire raids as a more effective and targeted means of engaging enemy targets.
